In the future, will we wear our homes like hermit crabs wear shells, our bodies whittled down by evolution and surgical manipulations to the barest essentials? These are some of the questions Gerald Heard raises in <a rel="nofollow" href="https://books.google.com/books?id=kGiBAAAAMAAJ"><i>Narcissus: An Anatomy Of Clothes</i></a> (1924).</p><br/><br/><blockquote><br/>The thesis of this book is that evolution is going on no longer in but around the man, and the faster because working in a less resistant medium. Man becomes like a wireless valve, a transmitter which in the process immensely amplifies the current that he receives. When the Force that shaped all life evolved man, it seems that it kept him henceforward un-specialised, gave him, strangest of gifts, no vocation and equipment but, if not at one blow, freedom, innate opportunism. This was reserved for the favourite. To all the others their function and place. They sink into their groove, deeper, ever deeper; they run their appointed race; they become every generation more perfectly adapted to be what they are. Vague Trial and Error pass into the exquisite precision of instinct: restless wandering, physical preparation for doubt, distress and conflict, settle into a functioning so appropriate that by all to whom it befalls Nirvana is attained. Desire becomes ever obviously compassable until it follows unrest beneath the vast sea-level of indifference, and Life is justified in all her children: she has rounded their day in perfect completeness. But man she has not completed. That is her supreme bequest to him: he shall finish the story as he likes.<br/></blockquote><br/><br/><p>While the short book consists mostly of a history of clothing trends and their relation to architecture and the cultures that produced both, Heard's real goal, laid out in the final chapter, is a manifesto of fashionable transhumanism: we will reshape ourselves, both culturally and physically, through our most intimate of all technology, clothing.</p><br/><br/><p><a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/?post=201511161540.narcissus_an_anatomy_of_clothes#fold">Read more...</a></p><br/><br/></article><br/><br/></div><br/><br/><br/><br/><div class="blog-entry"><br/><br/><header class="blog-entry-head"><br/><a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/lyle_zapato/"><img src="/icon/blog_authors/lyle.zapato.png" alt="Lyle Zapato"></a><br/><h4><a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/?post=201510188260.chinese_tinfoil_hat_patent" title="Link to this post">Chinese "Tinfoil Hat" Patent?</a></h4><br/><h5><a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/lyle_zapato/">Lyle Zapato</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/?post=201510188260.chinese_tinfoil_hat_patent" title="Link to this post">2015-10-18.8260 LMT</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/aluminum/">Aluminum</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/mind_control/">Mind Control</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/technology/">Technology</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/fashion/">Fashion</a> </h5><br/></header><br/><br/><article class="blog-entry-body"><br/><br/><p>Speaking of <a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/?post=201510177030.the_atlantics_afdo">deflector camouflage</a>... Last year, the Chinese government granted a patent for a <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.google.com/patents/CN203633560U">cap with tinfoil as radiation protection layers</a> (CN 203633560 U, Chinese title: 以锡纸作为防辐射层的帽子):</p><br/><br/><img class="right" src="/blog/chinese_patented_tinfoil_hat.png" height="251" width="300" title="以锡纸作为防辐射层的帽子" alt=""><br/><br/><blockquote><br/><h4 class="noborder">ABSTRACT</h4><br/><br/><p>A cap with tinfoil as radiation protection layers comprises a cap body, a top radiation protection composite layer and a side radiation protection composite layer. The top radiation protection composite layer and the side radiation protection composite layer are the same in structure and are both composed of a tinfoil layer and a flexible connecting layer, the top radiation protection composite layer is connected to the top of the inner wall of the cap body, and the side radiation protection composite layer is connected to the side portion of the inner wall of the cap body. The tinfoil layers coat one faces of the corresponding flexible connecting layers, and the other faces of the flexible connecting layers are connected to the inner wall of the cap body through adhesive patches. The adhesive patches are hook-and-loop fasteners, and the flexible connecting layers are cloth. The tinfoil is used as the radiation protection layers, the cap has the advantages of being simple in manufacturing process, convenient to manufacture, low in cost, uniform in thickness and convenient to carry, and well overcomes the defect that an existing radiation protection cap is uncomfortable in wear, the top radiation protection composite layer and the side radiation protection composite layer can be flexibly taken down, and the function of an ordinary cap and the function of the radiation protection cap are achieved.</p><br/></blockquote><br/><br/><p>Does this mean the <a rel="nofollow" href="/afdb/">AFDB</a> is now subject to a patent? No. This patent is focused on attaching a removable inner foil deflector layer to an outer cap using velcro, so AFDBs <i>per se</i> are not covered. However, this patent could be used to claim the exclusive right to attach a hat to an AFDB, a common form of camouflage among the beanied.</p><br/><br/><p>Past actions by patent trolls have shown that mere end users of a product supposedly covered by a patent can find themselves facing demands for license fees (see <br/><a rel="nofollow" href="http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/04/meet-the-nice-guy-lawyers-who-want-1000-per-worker-for-using-scanners/">MPHJ vs. anyone using a scanner to send emails</a>). Even if these demands are later determined to be bogus (as the MPHJ patent abuses <a rel="nofollow" href="http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2015/09/scan-to-e-mail-patent-troll-loses-appeal-cant-avoid-state-court-case/">eventually were</a>), they can still be a means of expensive harassment.</p><br/><br/><p>So, could this patent be a ploy by the forces of mind control to keep paranoids from hiding their beanies under a hat for fear of a lawsuit? While it's possible some legalistic faction of said forces might try such a tactic, it seems pointless.</p><br/><br/><p>If you are discovered to have been violating this patent, that means you have also been discovered to be an active paranoid seeking to avoid psychotronic mind-control. Instead of finding yourself in some East Texas court pleading to avoid paying license and lawyer fees, you're more likely to be abducted by a mind-control compliance van (which <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.jeffporten.com/?p=491">look like this</a>, btw.)</p><br/><br/><p><b>Paranoids are advised to ignore any legal threats related to this patent and continue camouflaging their beanies. If you receive a cease and desist, assume your cover as an orthonormal is blown and go to ground.</b></p><br/><br/><p>(Related post: <a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/?post=200812059140.afdbs_potentially_subject_to_patents">anti-Gray Orion helmet patent</a>.)</p><br/><br/></article><br/><br/></div><br/><br/><br/><br/><div class="blog-entry"><br/><br/><header class="blog-entry-head"><br/><a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/lyle_zapato/"><img src="/icon/blog_authors/lyle.zapato.png" alt="Lyle Zapato"></a><br/><h4><a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/?post=201510177030.the_atlantics_afdo" title="Link to this post"><i>The Atlantic</i>'s AFDO</a></h4><br/><h5><a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/lyle_zapato/">Lyle Zapato</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/?post=201510177030.the_atlantics_afdo" title="Link to this post">2015-10-17.7030 LMT</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/aluminum/">Aluminum</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/mind_control/">Mind Control</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/general_paranoia/">General Paranoia</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="/blog/fashion/">Fashion</a> </h5><br/></header><br/><br/><article class="blog-entry-body"><br/><br/><p>The new normal: the cover of the November, 2015 issue of <i>The Atlantic</i> features an Aluminum Foil Deflector Onesie (AFDO):</p><br/><br/><p class="center"><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2015/11/if-youre-not-paranoid-youre-crazy/407833/"><img class="line" src="/blog/the_atlantic-2015-11.blog.jpg" height="667" width="500" title="The Atlantic, Nov. 2015" alt=""></a></p><br/><br/><p>The image is for an article, titled <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2015/11/if-youre-not-paranoid-youre-crazy/407833/">"If You're Not Paranoid, You're Crazy"</a>, about life in our surveillance society.</p><br/><br/><p>Unfortunately, the editors of the normally orthonoiac magazine overlooked one of the most important parts of deflector shielding: camouflage.
